Rating: 
Summary: 3 1/2 stars....
Review: Gary Wedlund writes an interesting book that has a lot of black humor and reads like Dinner and a Movie on Ted Turner's TBS station. He is also reminenscent of George Romero's horrifying Dead series.Joe is just your average guy trying to catch some fish. Police officer Sandra Anderson is a girl he'd like to get to know. William is a mortician who packs some SERIOUS heat and knows his way around an M-16 and a bazooka. His girlfriend, Patricia, is not the perfect picture of loyalty. Reverend Purswell is a televangelist who has taken the word "terrorist" to a new extreme. Throw in a lawyer by day, dominatrix by night, in Dominique and you have a recipe for success. Oh yeah, a 13-year old Billy the Kid and lots of zombies add up to a fast-paced action filled rollicking good read. This book flew by for me and I think Wedlund has the moxie and the stuff to make a really good horror writer. He has found a niche and all I can do is hope he has a sequel coming soon. Oh, the reason I only gave it 3 1/2 stars is Wedlund is extremely detailed in dialogue scenes and it was just a little annoying when the conversation's kept going. It could have been wrapped up a little tighter, but hey who am I to complain? I am also an aspiring horror writer who plans on publishing through iuniverse.com as Mr Wedlund did. Hope u read this Gary, a very impressive debut!
